Sandro Marcos. “Since you’re practically a senior citizen, I found you this guide. It’s in the mail, read it well. It will help you,” he said in his latest vlog, while chuckling. First Lady Liza Marcos, on the other hand, chose a Taylor-Swift related book for their eldest son’s birthday present, entitled “Be More Taylor.” While the first couple cracked up at their choice of gifts for the lawmaker-son, they also dished out serious advice for the young Marcos, and other Filipinos who may also be entering their third decade. “Listen to your body. Don’t burn the candle on both ends too much… Eat well, exercise, try to have a routine,” the President said. “You will start to notice some differences in your body… When I was in my 20s yung bilbil ko, 2-3 araw lang kaya kong tanggalin, pagdating ko ng 30, not so quick. You have to make adjustments,” he said. The President also reminded his son not to compromise “God, country, family, honor, and duty.” “Just decide for yourself that there are certain principles that you will not compromise,” he said. “Life is a balancing act and you must manage your time well. Do not let yourself get into the situation later on in life when you’ll say I should have done that,” he said. When asked for dating and relationship advice for his firstborn, the President reminded the 30-year-old Marcos to “be a good guy.” “You’re a relatively young man and as the English say it, sow your wild oats, get these stuff out of your system, but first things first,” he said. “Just be a good guy. Just always show respect, always be dignified in all that you do,” he said. “Always try to do things in a nice way and in a dignified way. People are all important kahit na nag-away na kayo,” he added. Marcos Jr. also underscored the importance of staying calm and not panicking should his son encounter emergencies and crises. “Think things through before you act. You have to do it very quickly but you have to give yourself time to think,” he said. “When something happens, do not trust your first instincts, use your intellect,” he said. Meantime, among the First Lady’s reminders for their son is to take time to “step back” from social media and make time for mass and prayer. “Don’t forget your morals, your core family values… When you make mistakes, don&#x27;t worry about it because Taylor Swift says, ‘Forgive your mistakes,’” she said. “Don’t forget to pray. Count your blessings, hijo,” she said. “I know these millennials think they are better than God but that is not true. One day you’ll have a family and you will realize the importance of looking up to a higher God,” she said. Mrs. Marcos also reminded her eldest offspring: “Don’t burn bridges.” The vlog was uploaded 3 days after the Ilocos Norte representative celebrated his 30th birthday on March 7.
